Really frustrated with Leica lens hoods...
I have a 35mm Sumarit...it's not bad once you put some teflon tape on the threads, stays locked on,
but my V4 28 Elmarit is another story (wonderful lens BTW). For such a great lens, you'd think they could've made a better lenshood for it than the crap plastic one it comes with...it's come apart. I can fix it with some good aircraft epoxy I have, it'll be invisible...but I shouldn't have to...you'd think they could put some better engineering into their hoods...I wish it was metal and fit more positively onto the camera.
